New prototypes for the isolation of the anodic chambers in microbial fuel cells
(Elsevier, 2016-10)
This work has been focused on the assessment of new prototypes of MFC in which a more strict separation of the anode and cathode compartments is looked for, in order to attain strict anaerobic conditions in the anode chamber ...
Importance of Electrode Tailoring in the Coupling of Electrolysis with Renewable Energy
(Wiley, 2020-06-16)
In this work, it has been evaluated how the performance of an electrolyzer, used to treat a clopyralid waste and directly powered without regulation by a battery, is influenced by the electrodes resistance. Electrolyzers ...
Biofilm and planktonic population distribution. Key aspects in carbonaceous anodes for microbial fuel cells
(Wiley, 2018-05)
BACKGROUND
A comparison between different carbon-based anodes used in microbial fuel cells (MFCs) has been carried out. Five different carbonaceous anodes were studied: carbon paper, carbon cloth, carbon foam 30 ppi, ...
Improving photolytic treatments with electrochemical technology
(Elsevier, 2020-03)
Photochemical reaction is an Advanced Oxidation Process that have been extensively applied to wastewater treatment. New design of reactors, improvement of the hydrodynamics and light irradiation has led to good results. ...
Testing different strategies for the remediation of soils polluted with lindane
(Elsevier, 2020-02)
This work attempts to clarify the remediation processes involved in the treatment of soil spiked with non-soluble species like lindane. To achieve this goal, the remediation of spiked soil is evaluated coupling electro-kinetic ...
Strategies for the electrobioremediation of oxyfluorfen polluted soils
(Elsevier, 2019-02)
This work compares three strategies for the in-situ remediation of oxyfluorfen polluted clay soil, based on the combination of biological processes and electrokinetics (EK): (i) EK-biostimulation, in which the action of ...
Electro-Absorbers: A Comparison on Their Performance with Jet-Absorbers and Absorption Columns
(MDPI, 2020-06)
This work focuses on the removal of perchloroethylene (PCE) from gaseous streams using absorbers connected with electrolyzers. Two types of absorption devices (jet absorber and absorption column) were compared. In addition, ...
Development of a novel electrochemical coagulant dosing unit for water treatment
(Wiley, 2019-01)
The design of new approaches that help to decrease both the environmental impact of industrial activities and the cost of existing water treatment technologies is becoming a key aspect of research. In the present work, an ...
Removal of sulfate from mining waters by electrocoagulation
(Elsevier, 2017-07-12)
This work focuses on the removal of sulfate from mining waters by using electrocoagulation with iron electrodes. A comparison of the results obtained by electrocoagulation with those obtained with the application of ...
Irradiation-assisted electrochemical processes for the removal of persistent pollutants from wastewater
(ELSEVIER, 2017-03-24)
In this work, it is studied the treatment of real wastewater (intensified with two target compounds) using electro-irradiated technologies. Two types of effluents coming from an organic-synthesis pharmaceutical industry ...
